365 Days Recap (What has changed)

Wow! It has been a wild ride. I'll admit, it was tough and there were some times that I just didn't want to read. Lots of things happened so I'll try to bring you up to speed:

1. My father died. Here's the post.

2. My brother recieved Jesus Christ as his savior and got baptized! Here's the post.

3. I started blogging about this on LiveJournal, but I couldn't install a Google Analytics tracker, so I switched to Blogger. It was worth it!

4. I started off with a New King James Version of the Bible, went to a New International Version, and finished with a New Century Version. Incidentally the NKJV has spent some time in Iraq. I sent it overseas with a friend of mine when I was in the Marine Corps. The NCV is called Dad's Bible: The Father's Plan. I used Biblegateway for all of my passage lookups.

5. I learned the SOAP Note method from Greg Rohlinger, Pastor of Palm Valley Church in Goodyear, Arizona. He came to speak at Revolution Church to announce the loss of the pastor.

6. My wife's pregnant! As of now she is 10 weeks along and sick as a dog every day!

7. I started Code-4 Ministries! This has been the driving force behind finishing my study!

8. I have hit my 4 year mark volunteering at Revolution Church.

9. The pastor that inspired me to read the Bible had an affair. Here's his post. Here's my response.

10. My wife's brother got saved (at my house, in my hammock) and was baptized!

11. My wife tells me that I am not such an ass anymore! (sometimes)

12. I no longer work for Canton Police Department.

13. My son will start school on August 4.

14. I had an aunt die.

15. I have been in touch with several awesome people who lead police ministries in various parts of the country. I have traveled to Chattanooga, TN to observe a police ministry at work.

16. I've found a ministry mentor who is known for doing things above and beyond what is expected. You'd be surprised who it is, but I'm not telling yet!

17. And finally and most importantly, I've learned that people see a difference in the way that I live my life. They know that there is something different about me. I thank God for changing my heart and leaving his word on this earth for all of us to read.

That is all of the things that I can think of that have happened in my year long journey through God's Word. It has been a wild ride and I can't wait to start it all over again. Maybe next time I'll do character studies. Thank you for following along with me, I hope that I taught you something.
